Has anyone ever read the original book version of Bambi? It's pretty disturbingly violent. All the animals keep dying in pools of blood. Bambi's cousin Gobo (who is the shy runt of the family, really cute), dies near the end: "Gobo lay with his bloody entrails oozing from his torn flank" ... "Then they heard Gobo's wailing death shriek." And humans are described as having a "dark, unknown, controlling power." It's pretty nice and wistful at times too, when the animals aren't being maimed. I guess it balances out the 'Disneyfied' version, but maybe it does so a little too well. Anyway, nevermind, trivia. I met a faceless teacher of mine today. Well, actually she has a face. It's just that I've spent 4-5 months in teleconference classes with her, but I hadn't met her until today. It turns out she is Kylie Minogue. Actually that's a lie, I just made it up because there is no point to this story. And the random insertion of Australian celebrities will give any story a point. Or something.

To continue my theme of recounting the dreams of the mentally handicapped (i.e., me): last night I had a dream I was trying to kill a cat, but I couldn't, and it starting freaking out and attacking my hand and everything got messy and it just wouldn't die. I think this is because yesterday Holly (owner of the house I live in) told me to chase away the cat that had digging up her garden. But I couldn't, because I loves teh cats too much. So I just petted the cat instead, and it tried to jump onto me back, in a friendly way. Anyway, the moral is that cat dilemmas = cat mangling dreams. Now I have to go to my next class, so I will just post this and assume that it is not completely idiotic.
